"Floor looks beautiful! Reliable installers, who accommodated every request. They showed up before 8 every day and worked hard to get this difficult job done as quickly as possible. We requested a Versailles pattern, and it looks gorgeous! They were even able to repair cracked tiles in 2 other bathrooms without damage to surrounding tiles. They use a system to level each tile with the adjacent tiles. Looks better in real life, because pictures are a little dark. Note that they don't replace the floor trim, touch up paint or re-install toilets. The quarter round part of our trim was difficult to remove without breaking because the seams were caulked. So the quarter round isn't back on yet and the paint hasn't yet been touched up in these pictures. But even with the toilet removal they added toilet water solidifying crystals (ie. Oatey LiquiLock) so water wouldn't spill. Thank you, Michael and team!"

"The company replaced a broken ceramic soap dish on the bathroom. As this is an old house, they had to look all over town to find a replacement. While it wasn't a perfect match, I do appreciate the effort that they did to try and find one. The real interesting repair was to a broken counter edge tile. Again because of the age of the broken tile it was not possible to find an exact replacement. Pedro cleaned up the hole in the tile and hand crafted a replacement piece to fit the hole so precisely it's very hard to be where the repair was made! I would definitely use them again."

"My installer, Jose, was amazing! He was so accommodating to fit my schedule in a short timeframe. Jose was professional and very knowledgeable about installing tile. He installed my tile quickly and was very clean while working. I would definitely recommend Jose for tile work. Jose is also a great handyman because he also installed my TV on the wall which was difficult to do because the wall was covered in porcelain tile. THANK YOU, JOSE!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!"

"We hired Dolce Casa to do a tile job in a master bathroom. Domenico was excellent. He did everything he told me he was going to do, he showed up to work on time, and he was there when he said he'd be there. He worked our project and only our project for that week. The tile came out very nice. Both me and my wife were happy. The floor tile and the shower tile were very different too. The floor tile 12x24" while th shower tile was 4x16". Domenico made sure we were satisfied before he cleaned up. And he did a very nice job cleaning his work space when the project was done. When we ran into a few areas that needed more of his attention, he came back to work on the job even after we had payed him in full. Domenico is an honest contractor who cares about his customers. I recommend him highly."

"Emanuel and his crew were amazing. They were really professional and the communication was really great. I was kept in the loop the whole time. They did high quality work and hustled as well. They cleaned after the work was done daily and left the place organized. I have neighbors asking who did my work and are impressed by the quality workmanship that was done. I can’t say enough how satisfied I am with all their experienced work. And they are really amazing down to earth people! I would highly recommend their services to anyone. Florin Coste"

"I couldn't believe the speed, patience and accuracy shown to me by the staff at Floor Coverings International. They took the marble tile I had and crafted it like true pros in my kitchen. In fact I hadn't gotten enough and they patiently waited while I ran out and got more to put up. The fact that it was herringbone design was too intimidating for me to try and they handled it with ease with minimal waste. They even worked in the rain to get the job done! I recommend these guys for whatever your needs might be because their work is exemplary! Oh, and the cost was MORE than reasonable and handled it all within a week! These guys are awesome. I would be honored to be used as a live reference as well."

"The complete project went without any problems. I had been looking at this rather expensive glass tile and afraid how the installation would look. JD was very professional and the finished product was emaculate! If you need tile work done you owe it to yourself to give them a call."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in Durham, NC

People use the terms refinishing, resurfacing, and reglazing interchangeably. Refinishing is a process that repairs old tiles and gives them a fresh new coat of finish. This is also called tile resurfacing or reglazing.

Yes, you can refinish tiles as a DIY project, but it’s important to follow all the steps involved. These include the following:

  1. Clean the tiles or hire a local tile cleaning service to remove all the residue (soap film, oil, grease, and dirt).

  2. Etch the tile to ensure the refinishing solution adheres properly.

  3. Fill in any cracks or chips in the tile.

  4. Recoat the grout.

  5. Repair any missing or damaged caulking where applicable.

  6. Apply the refinishing product, primer, and enamel.

Your newly reglazed tile should last between 10 and 15 years with proper installation. However, higher-traffic areas and moisture may result in a reduced life span. Explore the cost of different tile types to determine which material works best for your home and needs.

Your bathtub and tile refinishing cost will likely seem like a small price to pay for the transformation it offers. Provided your tile and grout are both intact, refinishing will bring a brand-new style at a fraction of the cost.

Yes, most ceramic tile is paintable with specific epoxy or tile paints. However, you’ll want to avoid areas of heavy use or moisture, such as countertops, showers, and bathtubs. Paint can crack, bubble, or wear away over time, especially on floors.
